Geolocation Map Tile (Latitude/Longitude)

Community Projects
32

By suggestion from @simon, I’ve updated this tile to take advantage of the new Access to Things in Custom Tiles feature so it can be used with any device in SharpTools which exposes a latitude and longitude attribute.

This new approach is much faster and efficient than the original Hubitat Maker API approach as it’s able to directly access the Thing information from SharpTools and can receive event-driven, real-time updates.

Existing Tiles

Please keep in mind that the new approach directly references a Thing and no longer uses the Hubitat Maker API. If you are using the original Hubitat Maker API approach extensively, please note that updating to the newest version will require that you reconfigure any existing instances.

As such, you have two options:

  • Update from Source
    • You would then need to reconfigure each of your tiles
  • Import another copy
    • You would have the original Hubitat Maker API version and the new version

You can update your existing tile using the following steps:

You can import another copy of the tile using the Import Link in the original post at the top of the thread.
